Book excerpt: Lovell Harrison Rousseau was a distinguished Union general in the Civil War, but he was more than a soldier. A defense attorney, Rousseau served as a state legislator in Indiana and Kentucky before the war. After the war, Rousseau served as a congressman before returning to the service in 1867 as a brigadier general. This biography covers Rousseau's childhood challenges, varied career, and ambiguous attitude toward blacks.
